Making Up is Hard To Do
Posted on 12:36 PM by follow me
I'm low maintenance. If is sounds like I'm bragging, well truthfully I am. I have friends who could not by any stretch of the imagination be called low maintenance and that works for them. I've never had the time or inclination to spend hours every week on my appearance. I've always felt that what was inside was way more important. And then... my face got old. And now I'm considering an adjust to my maintenance level.
So here's what I ask of you dear readers, for those of you whose beauty routine consists of more than a comb, concealer, mascara and powder, where do I start? What products do you recommend for combination skin that is showing wear and tear and covered with freckles? Is there a foundation that is fast and easy to use and doesn't make me break out or emphasize the craters, err uh, I mean wrinkles on my face? Can I spackle them? Is there an at home coloring product that covers grey and doesn't look like you colored your hair at home? Or should I just suck it up and start selling my blood so that I can afford to do it at the salon? Why is it when I apply eye shadow my eyelid actually moves with the makeup brush and seems to have no desire to go back where it belongs? Is this normal? Is there a good eye cream that works and doesn't cost $500 an ounce?I'm not trying to avoid getting older, I'm just trying to do it gracefully and without having to hide whenever I see a mirror. Please help a former self righteously low maintenance girl out. P.S. Do you realize how hard it was to post that big 'ol picture of myself? If you choose to click on it and enlarge it, you deserve whatever you get.

I just wanted to clarify that in my last post, I did not mean to suggest that The Farm Chicks have anything to do with the set up of the Fair. They are just participants and go with the flow just like the rest of us!
